Demo of Challenge.gov and Best Practices in Creating Online Challenges

Date: Thursday, July 22nd

Time: 3:00 – 4:00 pm ET

Place: Online Webinar

Presenter: Brandon Kessler, Founder of ChallengePost.com

 

Challenge.gov is a new platform that just opened for federal agencies' to create new--or post existing--challenges.

 

Challenge.gov enables agencies and citizens to connect around and solve some of government’s most important challenges.  More and more federal agencies are turning to challenges and contests as a way to spur innovation, identify new ideas and technologies, build engagement with the public, and deliver high-quality, low-cost solutions to complex mission needs.  Created by the General Services Administration in partnership with ChallengePost, Challenge.gov makes it easy for federal agencies to post any type of challenge, build a strong community, and solicit groundbreaking solutions, all based on a platform that is compliant with the latest federal privacy, security, and accessibility requirements. It is free for federal agency use.

 

In this webinar, Brandon Kessler, Founder and CEO of ChallengePost, will:

        Provide you with a "sneak peek" demonstration of Challenge.gov before it opens to the public

        Show you what functionality it offers federal agencies now

        Show you how to conceive, structure, and post an effective challenge that gets results

        Share best practices in how to create a challenge from well-known ChallengePost projects such as USDA's Apps for Healthy Kids contest, New York City's BigApps contest, and the Thomson Reuters StreetApps challenge

 

Whether you've already launched a federal challenge and want to promote it on Challenge.gov, have a specific challenge planned in the future, or are just interested in learning more about online challenges, this webinar is "required viewing" for anyone considering using innovation contests and challenges to further your Open Government and innovation efforts.
